Microbiological shelf-life: how to set a safe shelf-life
In this short video, Linda Everis, Section Lead for Microbiology Safety & Spoilage, outlines how to set a safe microbiological shelf-life.
Understanding the microbiological shelf-life of your products is essential if you are to ensure their safety and quality; and maintain consumer confidence. But it is equally important to set the correct safe shelf-life for your product, if you are to strike the right balance between legal requirements, quality and consumer confidence without negatively affecting your costs, waste and profit margins.
Consequently, in this short video you will learn:
- What is shelf-life?
- The importance of setting the correct shelf-life
- How predictive modelling can help
- How the use of inoculated challenge test studies can support this
If you have any more questions about this or anything else to do with shelf-life and testing, we are also offering a free 20-minute consultation with Linda.
